Welcome to Ouachita River Haven! Nestled between Ouachita National Forest property and the Ouachita River, our Haven is a peaceful little slice of nature for you to take a break, catch your breath, and enjoy the outdoors! Property has 1000 ft of river access, with canoe & kayak docks, swimming hole, volleyball and tetherball, horseshoes, swings. We offer hiking, mountain biking, and river shuttles as well as canoe/kayak/tube rentals and shuttles. Such trips should be reserved in advance by messaging us or visiting our website. Our office sells firewood for $5/bundle. We also have a small array of custom woodwork items from our woodshop, freeze dried snacks and hiking restocks, food from local vendors, and souvenirs! All primitive sites have a picnic table, fire ring, and campfire grill grate. Electric sites are 30 amp, if using for tent camping you will need a 3-prong converter (we can rent one to you for $5 if you do not have your own). RV/Camper MAXIMUM length is 28 feet. Tipi rental is a camping experience only; it does not have electricity, a/c or heat. There are solar lights inside. We do have a Queen Sized outdoor bed and bedding available to add to rental for $10/night. Bunkhouse is a camping experience - bring your own bedding. A/C, heat, electricity, TV & DVDs, Microwave, and Mini fridge are inside. Guests use campground restrooms Campground restrooms and showers are a short walk from campgrounds. We are pet-friendly. Dogs must be leashed at all times that they are not in a tent or camper and friendly with other dogs and people. There is a working dog on the property-he is friendly with all people and dogs.

My spot was moved to site 13 and it was the most amazing stay. The camp sites had amazing views and the site was the best size. I had a huge part of the river to myself which was perfect.

Beautiful property! Site 14 is very peaceful. Sleeping by the flowing water was relaxing. We will definitely be back. A few very good local restaurants short drive in Mount Ida.

Ok campsite, some issues
It took a little bit to find our campsite, the sign for it was in the ground. We had paid for firewood to be at the campsite and it wasn’t there, I tried to go to the front to ask about it and no one was at the house. After I used the restroom a GIGANTIC spider came out from the side of the toilet so maybe that should be check every now and then. Other than that the site was OK. The trees overhead in the part of the campsite we were in was not really open to be able to stargaze easily.

SKETCH
Left first night. People around our tent while we were sleeping. No answer when asked who was there. When checked out they were about 100 feet walking away. No response or refund from owner yet. If that was the owners that is not how you check on your visitors. Very Scketchy

Windchimes Cabin
Spacious cabin with rustic yet home
Place was clean. Great secluded location. Enjoyed the Independence Day fireworks on site. Spacious cabin with rustic yet homely touch. We are used to hard beds so beds didn’t feel as comfortable but manageable. Soooo many birds, no light pollution so we could see the milky way. Will go back !
